Hi Kilby, You are right on the money! In order to reduce the not so enjoyable fish eye effect, the Gopro2 allow me to shoot with a field of view of 127 degrees vs 170 degrees which makes quite a difference. As you mentionned, some side effect, however, if post stab is used.

Hi Gump, Your observation is very accurate and indeed, a bit mystifying when you look at the general stability of the video. Needless to say that I have noticed this effect as well. It was not on the original track but appeared after I ran the Youtube post stabilization software which got rid...

And I though I was addicted....Good idea Gump. I will certainly need some assistance to get into CGI. Sounds too complicated for an old pilot like me. Ha! Ha!

Hi again, I am in the process of reviewing this system, awaiting better weather to carry the unit outside and airborne. It is a good idea you are suggesting to see the effects (if any) of the different settings using the video downlink, I will include this to my test battery. As soon as I...

This is one of my first video, risking all for a good video. No guts, no glory! The kids and adults loved it! Please, do not hesitate to comment. Off course, resolution should be 1080i, full screen and crank it up! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fK5gRq51rA

Hi and welcome aboard! Lots of expertise here, in various domaines. Happy flying!

Hi Tahoe Ed and thank you for your reply. Indeed, the Gopro requires a 2.5 mm 4 pole jack and the DJI tx cable is a 3.5 mm. stereo jack. I had plugged in an adaptor 3.5 mm stereo to 2.5 mm stereo and this, in fact, grounded the video signal. I have now purchased a 2.5 mm, 4 poles for the...

Hi gang! I am going to ask for help realizing that someone amongst us must have the knowledge to solve this problem. As mentionned, I am trying to use the new DJI Tx/Rx on 5.8 Ghz with my Gopro2 and I can not get anything coming out of it. I have purchased an adaptor to connect the Tx to the...

Happy birthday! Mine never forked out that much.... Does she have a sister that enjoys snow??? Ha! Ha!

Hi, Do yourself a favor....do not fly with DJI props. Gaupners are great and a bit pricy but not as much as a new multi... APC props are great and cheap, you can rely on them. Good landings! Rodge

Very nice work indeed! I believe the first sequence was shot with the multi-going on a head on with the truck then pupped up and away. The truck could have been going 10 - 15 mph in the making and the sequence was subsequenly speed up. It remains a super innovative productions with...

Gee Kloner you did it again!!!! Sitting back here in northern Canada and dreaming of such beaches, you were able to take me there as if I was sitting on the beach! I will likely never visit this great area but through you Quads' eyes, I have been there. Thank you for sharing such great...

I totally agree with your statement. I personally got a Walkera Ladybird 2 days ago and I have been very impressed with its' stability and its' manoeuvrability. Usually, those two words do not go together but in this case it does! I will use the ladybird to keep the reflexes and improve with...

Kloner, you are my all time favorite! Gee you make me laught.....and a babysitter....Ha! Ha! Ha!.... »I know you mean it!

Hi Jim, I do not think that this battery is too much for your F550. DJI provide the following specs for the F550: weight ready to fly: 1200 grams (1.2 Kg) and max take off weight: 2400 grams (2.4 Kg). It means that if you take off with a max weight of 2400 grams, your weight to thrust ratio...

Hi Peter and welcome aboard! I think you will very quickly realize that multi-rotor flying is just a class apart! You can do low passes and aerobatic type flying if it is your kik or proceed in the aerial videography aspect of the hobby, not to forget the amazing FPV experience, described by...

Hey Kloner! Really had no idea that you were such a great philosopher... (Ha! Ha!) Totally agree with you on that one. I always say: ''You may regret an extra hour passed at the office when you die but you will never regret an extra hour of flying!''

Hi there! Do yourself a favor and save a couple hundred dollars... Throw all the DJI props in the garbage!!!! It will break up in flight and will cost you a bundle if it doesn't hurt someone. Guarantee. APC, Zinger and of course the great Graupner will amaze you with the reliability of its...

You bet my friend! A lot of expertise here!!!! Great site!

Gee.... That makes a lot of sense! Why would't they proceed that way??? Granted, DJI feature 400 grams of weight per motor i.e. DJI F450 max T/O weight 1600 grams and DJI F550 max T/O weight 2400 grams, so if you get a broken prop on a F450 and shut off the other motor you may end up with...
